I think it's great that all this stuff is going to be preserved, digitally. Magazines and inlays aren't going to last forever, and it's be such a shame if some stuff was lost forever. This is gonna be ace, and if I can be of any help at all then you just let me know!

Also, there will be a YAKYAK page so stories about playing llamasoft games, hiscores... anything yakky releated. Send em my way.

Also, by way of a comp... lets have some game design idea's featuring the llamasoft characters OR design some llamasoft posters... load up PSP and play! the more art we get the better!

I hope there will be also a section containing all or some of the archived
threads of the forum, I am just reading now some threads I feel I'd love
to propose for archiving so I just had in mind this.

This forum is part of the "LLamasoft story" and I think it would be
something really precious and nice for the future to have an opportunity
to see what we were saying, our feelings, what changed and what not...

It's really a bit "the history of all us"

Of course the same apply to WoTR to be precise, I don't know WoTR
well (yet) I just started to read/watch a bit it .. honestly this forum
is already my "desktop background" and "where most of my time goes"

I really can't join anything else, I would not even eat or work then

I keep some funny posts/threads (to me anyway

) on here:

http://www.medwaypvb.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/

And unless we have another pruning

we won't lose anything, and the Forums will I guess be linked to from the Ultimate Archive.

Giles is absolutley correct, and yes, there will be a YAKYAK section and link. Certainly the posts we feature will have to be TOTALLY llamasoft because the archive will be visited by folk who dont know about it.

A thread that stays on topic? That'll be special!

Hey Markie, if you need some Scans from these Games... but i think, you already have them all.

nice one eb, could I have a scans of Yaks Progress please. That one looks much cleaner than my scan. :-)

Going to be starting a game comp very soon folks! If there is a jedi blaster out there who can combat Mamallama... I intend to find them

<NOSTALGIA> THAT - brought a little tear to me eye, yes it did.

Those were good days indeed. </NOSTALGIA>

And that is justification enough for what Markie is doing, isn't it? Go for it boyo, I can't wait....
